PA30 performance (fps)

Post by BrianV » Wed Nov 07, 2018 10:04 pm

Hi, I am a bit puzzled about the PA30 as it seems to lower my fps quite substantially when compared with other airplanes that I have (including the C310). I use P4.3 and have a Nvidia GTX 980 graphics card. With the PA30, I generally have about 15 - 20 fps, whereas with other aircrafts it is about 25 - 35 fps. Is there anything in the PA30 that may drain significantly the fps in P3D v4.3?

Other than that, this is a fantastic airplane, a joy to fly, and to see.

Rebuild your shaders and try again. Someone else posted the same behavior and that fixed it

Many thanks for the suggestion. I did try this, but it did not change the fps.

Hello, I tried the new version
Seemed to help. But now when in windows mode when I adjust the window P3D v4 crashes.

I have exactly the same problem. FPS drops to 20 though with other planes for example 310R Redux gives fps 50-60. Help please!
